Why The Conceitedness?

Physicists show scores of examples of all the Goldilock zones the Earth is in, thereby making life possible. If we were outside even one of these zones, life would not have been possible, and so people believe that there is a supreme force controlling the universe and making it possible for us to live. Why do they assume that this 'supreme force' cares whether we live or not? Isn't it more likely that merely because the Earth is inside all these zones we happen to exist?...And not just that, maybe if conditions were different on Earth, we might've evolved to adapt to them. Also, why do people even have the preconceived notion that extraterrestrials will be anything like us? Maybe they don't need oxygen to survive...maybe they can withstand temperatures of 1000 degree.

Helloooo People!! :D

Well it's been a really long time since my last post. People who don't know me would think that I've abandoned my blog.

Nope, I never even thought of abandoning it. In fact, I've been dying to get back to it and save it from the cobwebs of the Internet. Things have changed since I last posted. I've not had the time to sit alone and think randomly as I used to all the time. And I done think I will ever again, thanks to a personality change and interest in some new areas of life...Anyway, let's get back to topic....

Have you heard of or met those people who go through their entire lives thinking only of themselves? There's a good chance that you have.... These people have been brought up to believe that you should always look out for yourself, otherwise someone will take advantage of you. So they counter this by grabbing every oppurtunity they get, even at the cost of discomfort or harm to fellow men and women, being under the illusion that this is the only way to survive in this hard world.

As they are only on the lookout for things that will benefit their career, make them richer, make their kids smarter( that is,their own version of being smart, to look out for personal benefits) and so on, they will have little interest in things that don't concern them. You won't see them feeling sorry for the neighbours when they get robbed, but you'll see them clucking away like chickens if there is a rumour that the burglar is going to strike their house next. They show no interest in global warming, increasing levels of carbon dioxide, excessive forest cutting, loss of habitats for animals, recycling, saving water, avoiding food wastage, saving paper, avoiding use and burning of plastic...they beleive it that these worldwide phenomena will not affect them, it is for others to worry about and besides, how will one less person forgetting to turn off the tap affect the world anyway?

They will only help others when they know that they will get something in return. Haven't you often heard the line," Why should you keep helping him when he does nothing for you?" (granted, there are definitely a few crooked people who ask for your help or money often and then disappear from your life). In a crowded train, they will refuse to adjust so that more passengers to sit down, complaining that they paid for the seats, have had a long hard journey that was already delayed by 2 hours, they have the right to use them fully and blah blah blah. Well of course you have the bloody right since you paid for the seats, but did you realise that the standing passengers are having a harder journey?

When they are responssible for an accident on the road and injuring someone, their immediate reaction is to screech away from the scene before the police come, shouting loudly that it was the other guy's else's fault (in America it's understandable, because some wierdos are more interested in suing the culprit than in grieving for their family member). There are so few people who even stop to offer help when a fellow's car breaks down on the highway.

When you think of matters only from your own point of view, you are known as a narrow-minded person. Such people are also more judgemental and have shorter tempers. When a broad minded person does things in his own unique way, instead of following the age old practices of his society these fools are quick to pass comments and ridicule them, never bothering to fairly judge if this person is making a wiser move than everyone else. It is because of broad-minded people in history like Giordano Bruno, Copernicus and Galileo that we know the truth about our solar system and universe today( the Church in the medieval ages believed that since God has a path set for us, it is no longer necessary for us to think). Bruno was burned at the stake for having opinions contrary to those of the Catholic faith, Copernicus had his works published only after his death to avoid repurcussions and Galileo was sent to jail for claiming that the earth was not the centre of the universe... I ask you....

Do you know how everyone believes in something? Some people believe in God, some believe in destiny, in fate, some believe in soulmates....i believe that everyone of us has some unique skill that we are better at than anyone else...i want to find it....

It's predictable that he will be unpredictable. So in the end is he predictable?

The only permanent rule in the game is that you can't play it the way you did last time. So in the end does the game have any permanent rules?

If you have succeeded in failing, then have you done both at the same time?

" Is I feel happy considered a factual statement in philosophy? "

Why are disgusting-tasting foods usually the most nutricious?

Wasn't nature supposed to have built us for survival? When you feel cold, your body shivers to keep you warm. When your skin gets cut, platelets clot the blood around the area. When you get a disease, your immune system kicks in. So why does the tongue want to reject nutricious food? Doesn't the brain know that the food can make our immune system stronger?

If we think along the lines of Darwin theory, it would be suggesting that the world will slowly be rid of weak-minded people-people who cannot bare to swallow 'bluaarrrgghh!!!'-tasting foods. Hmmm....
